Stars react to Angelina Jolie double mastectomy news

Support is pouring in for Angelina Jolie, who revealed Tuesday in a New York Times piece that she recently underwent a preventative double mastectomy.

Rancic, along with Sheryl Crow, who both battled breast cancer, are among the stars speaking out. Check out their words of support below:
